經律異相 46.43

46.43

曾有一女人。為餓鬼所持。即以呪術而問鬼言。何以惱他女人。鬼答之言。此女人者是我怨家。五百世中而常殺我。我亦五百世中。斷其命根。若彼能捨舊怨之心。我亦能捨。爾時女人作如是言。我今已捨怨心。鬼觀女人雖口言捨。而心不放。即斷其命（出抄毘婆沙經第八卷）。

Once there was a woman who was possessed by a hungry ghost. Using spells, [someone] questioned the ghost, saying, "Why do you torment this other woman?" The ghost answered, "This woman is my enemy. Over five hundred lifetimes, she always killed me. I, too, over five hundred lifetimes, severed her life-faculty. If she can abandon her mind of old enmity, I can abandon it as well." At that time, the woman spoke these words: "I have now abandoned my mind of enmity." The ghost observed that although the woman's mouth said she abandoned it, her mind did not let it go; and he immediately severed her life. (Extracted from the Summary of the Vibhāṣā Sūtra, fascicle 8)
